What Patients are Saying

1295-star reviews!

May, 2019"Lovely office and even lovelier staff. Dr. Patty is the best! Our daughter has been coming here since she was 6 months old (she’s almost 5). I can’t say enough about how consistently wonderful our experience has been. Thank you! “NO CAVITY CLUB” FOR LIFE!!!"

- Bryon A H.

May, 2019"Brought our two-year old daughter to her first dentist appointment. Sooo pleased with Portland Children's Dentistry from the moment we called. Staff were helpful on the phone with scheduling and rescheduling our appointment. We filled out all of our forms online which made for a easy and smooth visit once we arrived at the office. The office is located in a great location with access to parking.

Upon walking in, we were greeted with smiles. The office is clean, airy and bright. There is a (clean!) area for kids to play, and a hideout for kids to watch movies. Felt much more like a cool clubhouse than a dentist office.

Dany was an allstar with acclimating our daughter to sitting on the dental chair, allowing her to put a foreign toothbrush (with a head that spins) in her mouth, opening wide, etc. They gave out a bright colorful balloon, she got her picture taken for the No Cavity Club, and also walked out with a very generous toy from the toy bin that she picked out herself. Dr. Patty was positive, upbeat, and great with patient and parent education (what foods promote good dental hygiene and won't cause cavities, which teeth had come in, which ones remained, what to do about fluoride, etc!). We can't wait to go back and wish we could before our next 6 month appointment. Thanks Portland Children's Dentistry!"

- Angie L.

April, 2019"Absolutely the best in children's dentistry. My daughter (3) was a little nervous for her appointment, but everything about the clinic is warm and inviting. From coffee and large play areas in the lobby to the open and welcoming exam spaces, everything seemed designed with a child in mind. Janelle, our tech, was so wonderful with my daughter. She instantly put her at ease and explained every step in child-centered and age-appropriate language. My daughter was comfortable with her in under 5 minutes! Dr. David is fantastic and had some very helpfuladvice and tips for us to stay cavity-free and spoke about dental health in very approachable terms. We would highly recommend this clinic to anyone!"

- Tessa S.

April, 2019"I could not ask for a better pediatric dentist. She takes her time, articulates and explains things well, always has a smile on her face, and genuinely shows care and concern for her patients. My kids LOVE going to the dentist."

- Jacob S.

April, 2019"We’ve taken our kids here since our oldest daughter was 1 (now 3.5) and have had such pleasant experiences each time. They work so closely with parents to make sure that the whole appointment is of as little stress to the little ones as possible (even if it means just a quick glance and count of teeth for our 1 year old) and don’t they bill you for for anything excessive if they weren’t able to get in there. Dr. David has such a good rapport with the kids (no experience with Dr. Patty yet, but I’ve only heard good things about her as well) and they hygienists are so patient and attentive to the needs of the little patients. We love them."

- Sarah C.

April, 2019"Phenomenal dentists who are board- certified in pediatric dentistry. Caring, knowledgeable, compassionate. We feel so fortunate to have been patients here with Dr David and Dr Patty. Highly recommend!"

- Erica D.

April, 2019"We love Portland Children's Dental. We've had bad experiences with dentists in the past, so it is wonderful to have the kids finally look forward to their visits! Dr Patty is so friendly and engaging, but also honest and direct. They don't push expensive, optional treatments here, and they offer education and options when decisions need to be made. Our family goes to the Woodstock location, which has a great layout for big families because the exam chairs are in an open area where the kids can all be together. Off-street parking is great, and the facility is clean and neat. Everybody on the staff is super nice, and the hygienists are very patient and gentle."

- Holly N.

March 27, 2019"The place was hard to find, but after we did, the staff and dentist was great. They were super friendly and let me daughter check everything out before they use it on her. She is 3 and wants to know how everything works. Thank you Portland Children Dentistry for making it a great experience!!"

- Jessica M.

February 27, 2019"The person who did my teeth was bright and bubbly, she was so kind! Everything down to the people at the desk were amazing. I needed to come in so I called them this morning and they were able to get me in on the same day!"

- Thiztle G.

February 13, 2019"My son, after getting his teeth cleaned today, said "I LOVE Dr. Dave!" , which pretty much sums it up. My 2 and 4 year olds love coming to this dentist - they actually look forward to it. The staff are remarkably patient, accommodating, and kind with kids. They make the whole process as fun as possible. Dr. Dave is wonderful with children. The office is set up perfectly for kids, with entertainment in the waiting area and additional entertainment while they are getting their teeth cleaned. Both locations are wonderful!"

- Jo Martin

February 12, 2019"Amazing place for kids! Everyone is so caring and patient. I’ve met with both of the doctors and they are equally wonderful! If you’re thinking about bringing your kids in, stop thinking and DO IT! You won’t regret it:)"

- Kylie Brasmer

February 08, 2019"5 stars WOW!!! My kids actually LOVE coming here to visit Dr. Patty. Josue always provides a warm and welcoming smile that lights up the room and makes us all feel more comfortable. Definitely would recommend this caring team for kids dentistry."

- Benjamin E

February 05, 2019"5 stars I loved the location, the staff, the style of layout with child in mind. Lindsey was amazing with my two little girls and the dentist was calm and friendly with them too. I felt relaxed and I didn't feel like they were trying to rush me out."

- Christian R.

January 31, 2019"Start to finish this clinic has been phenomenal! We have been seen by both drs, at both locations and have been blown away at the customer service, availability, and mindful thought process of all of the staff. I would recommend this clinic to any little with any level of anxiety, and any parent who expects the best for their child!"

- Jessica Eaton

January 27, 2019"5 stars Thank you for giving my son the best experience! Dr.David and Lisa were absolutely amazing with him"

- Lidia L.

January 27, 2019"Beyond pleased with our experience at Portland Children's Dentistry! Dr Patty And Lisa did an exceptional job working with our little Renzo! Thank you for making his first dentist experience a great one!"

- Lidia L.

January 23, 2019"I am beyond impressed with the staff at Portland's Children Dentistry! I can't say enough about how much each member cares about your child! You truly are in good hands! My daughter Olivia just like many children was beyond scared to go to the dentist from a previous bad experience so I made the switch and scheduled a check up at Portland's children dentistry and boy I'm glad I did. Olivia favored Lisa because she is so kind and compassionate, and she instantly noticed Olivia was a little scared so she found countless ways to distract/entertain her while she was being worked on. You can just tell they love kids my daughter to my surprise loved it! Dr. David knows exactly how to work with children and make their once bad experience a memorable one. My daughter now looks forward to her dentist visits and it's all because of Portland's children Dentistry! Thank you guys!"

- Michelle B.

January 16, 2019"5 stars Both Dr. Patty and Dr. David are rockstars, so kind and engaging with kids of all ages. We have now been to both locations and I can tell that the professionalism, collegiality and good vibes follow these doctors everywhere. Both my 9yr olf and my 3 yr old have had great experiences there. My toddler has dentist anxiety and both Dr. Patty and Dr. David were extremely understanding, patient and just simply cool with him. Their staff is amazing too. Janelle has a definite super power at putting kids at ease. Keep it up, guys and thank you for all that you do!"

- Janna D.

January 15, 2019"The best dentist for kids! Our 3 year old feels very comfortable here and the care he has received is phenomenal. We highly recommend these caring professionals! -Nunya B. 11/13/18 My two children had great visits here! We switched after another local pediatric dentist was just rushing through their visits and the dental hygienist was mean to one of my sons. Dr. David was wonderful at explaining things and making sure our issues were addressed. Everyone at the office is so friendly and their setup with TVs in the ceilings and toys in the waiting room was awesome to keep the kids feeling calm!"

- Jen L.

January 02, 2019"Thank you Dr. Patty and your wonderful staff. My daughter has anxiety when it comes to the dentist and the staff made her feel so calm and relaxed. They were patient and explained everything that would happen during her cleaning and exam. I found the office to be warm and inviting. My daughter has a small cavity on the surface of her tooth and Dr. Patty recommended silver diamine fluoride to treat. It's a simple application with no need to numb or drill."

- Christy C.

December 27, 2018"Both dentists are awesome. For newbies, this is a no brainer. We moved from California and came to this place because of good reviews and it worked out very well."

- Mahendra A.

December 23, 2018"Thank you Portland Children's Dentistry for being wonderful!"

- David Epstein

December 18, 2018"I have nothing but great things to say about this office. Very welcoming from the front office right off the start. tv in lobby with tons of toys, as well as friendly staff. My son loved and felt comfortable to their assistant Kyla right off the bat. Dr Patty was sweet, gentle and thorough with everything. Definitely bring your kids here!!"

- Nik Witter

December 07, 2018"I had such a great first experience here, and so did my son. Thanks to Alyssa's excellent treatment and engagement of him he was well behaved and enjoyed his experience. He has never liked the dentist until today. Everyone was super nice and helpful, David did a great job explaining everything I needed to know to continue to care for my kid's dental hygiene. I'm seriously blown away with how great everyone at this office was. Truly, thanks a lot."

- Corey L.

October 16, 2018"Thanks Portland Children’s Dentistry for the warm welcome to our family. We were thrilled with our visit yesterday!"

- Linnea Osterberg

September 17, 2018"Our daughter has been a patient at Portland Children’s Dentistry for 3 years. Dr. Patty and the team at Portland Children’s Dentistry completely transformed our daughter’s dental experience! After a negative experience at another local children’s dentist, our daughter was terrified to even sit in the chair. The team at PCD patiently took her through several happy visits over a 6 month period and took our daughter from a fearful child hiding in the corner afraid to open her mouth, to one who skipped in to the office and couldn’t wait to see everyone. For our family it was nothing short of a miracle! Our daughter has sensory processing disorder and Dr. Patty has always been supportive, caring and patient. We cannot say enough good things about PCD!"

- Linda Russo

September 03, 2018"I highly recommend Portland Children's Dentistry. We had very good experience with them. My kids hated dentist appointments.., but now since we started to come here and seen Dr. David my kids felt very comfortable with them and now not afraid of dentist appointments anymore. They always come to their dentist appointments with the big smile. :)"

- Inna Beglets.

September 02, 2018"Our 7 year-old has an engineering mind and likes having things explained to him. He wants to know everything that is going on and doesn't want to be distracted by a kid's video. We appreciated the time that the dental hygienist took to explain how all of her tools worked and used a non-flavored or scented tooth cleaner. Dr. David was easygoing, so that my son felt very relaxed and at ease during the entire experience. We will definitely return to this practice!"

- Lara T.

August 28, 2018"Great experience for my 2 year old who just had a face bump and tooth trauma. The assistants were wonderful! There were lots of toys while we waited and a very kid friendly waiting room. The dentist Dr. Patty was great also. Glad we found them! And they have 2 locations :)"

- Sasha Edwards.

August 27, 2018"This office is amazing! I had a great experience for our first visit with my 2 year old daughter. The staff and Dr Patty are so kind and patient! Her hygienist Janelle was so great my daughter can't wait to come back!"

- Jenny C.

August 20, 2018"Janelle is my sons dental assistant. She's so calm and the most kindest person! She makes my son feel comfortable. Dr. David is a great dentist and has a great personality! Highly Recommend these two! :)"

- Karen D.

August 20, 2018"I highly recommend this office! Dr Patty is amazing my kids love coming to see her, and her assistant Janelle always does a great job and has the best personality for kids!"

August 16, 2018"I love this place. They made my sons first dentist experience relaxed and fun. It's worth the long drive from Hillsboro."

- Roxanne Lovelace.

July 25, 2018"Dr. Patty and staff are amazing. Dr. patty was really sweet and made sure my son and daughter had the best 1st dental experience will definitely recommend to all my mom friends. Thank you so much , Love the Morfin Family"

- Jeanette Morfin.

July 14, 2018"From start to finish, the staff here made my two-year-old daughter's visit enjoyable and stress-free. All the fun little extras really make them stand out. We both left smiling and happy. I can see her continuing her care her throughout her entire childhood. Great clinic for the little ones!"

- Delany Davis

June, 2018"Ladies and gentlemen, I never leave a review - for anyone - but I HAVE to leave a review for this place! I cannot articulate how of an exceptional place this is, from the space to the people - I am highly impressed. They are so great with kids m, so pleasant. They offered a friendly visit with no cost, since I omitted adding my young kids to my insurance dental plan. They are so professional; treat you as if you were their family - so welcoming and skilled. I am definitely, definitely going to make this place a home for all of my children's dental needs!"

- Fatima Biberic.

June, 2018"We have had nothing but wonderful experiences with Dr. Patty and staff at PCD. Everyone is warm and friendly and great at relating to kids. Our 5 year old had to have a tooth extracted, which was very scary for her, but Dr. Patty was AMAZING and helped our nervous daughter feel at ease. We are so glad to have found this place!"

-Amanda Marshall.

June 14, 2018"We just went to Dr. Patty today and I had to rush home to do a review! I'll start by saying she is the dentist other doctors sent their kids to - so she comes highly recommended. Our daughter is 2 and has oral aversion. She was a micropreemie born without enamel on many of her teeth. We were nervous coming in but it was by far the best doctor visit we've ever experienced. Dr Patty spoke with me on the phone beforehand to answer questions and make me comfortable. The lobby is incredibly kid friendly, as are the stations - with TVs and animals and books. The visit was quick but thorough and our daughter immediately got a balloon, to pick out a fun toy and get her photo taken to print and take home. The staff are also very friendly and accommodating. We left with an understanding of our daughter's dental diagnosis and the three-step plan to keep her teeth healthy, with her aversions and realistic steps in mind. So thankful to have found Dr. Patty!"

-Jamien S.

June 7, 2018"First visit for my 2 1/2 son today was amazing. Everyone in the office, from front office staff to hygienist are great and caring. The front lobby is very welcoming and made my kid feel relaxed. Dr Patty is amazing. She always explains and show us any issues to be concern. We've been going here for over 4 years now and looking forward to many more years for the dental care of our children... current ages 6 and 2 1/2."

-Leo. H

May, 2018"We drive from Happy Valley to go to Portland Children's Dentistry. They are amazing and with my daughter freaking out all the time that's saying a lot. If you need an amazing experience with tons of bribes involved, this is your place. They get a ballon, they get to pick out a toy, watch a movie, get a photo... It's like going to a party for my kids and everyone is kind and gentle."

- Vanessa W.

May, 2018"Love doctor Patty and the hygienist. They are amazing with my shy and nervous kids."

April 23, 2018"I have a Four and a Nine year old. We just moved to Portland 2 years ago. I can't remember a time when any of my kids, families kids, friends kids, or co-workers kids ever said they wanted to go to the dentist...My kids absolutely love Dr. David and Patty. The way they make it a destination, almost like a spa day with MOM...Movie, Toy, and most of all kindness...

Thank you PCD for making my children's experience such a easy and inviting one.

We love it... You have two till they turn 18!!!"

-Mark S.

February 14, 2018First visit today with Dr david WOW doesn’t even cover it. Thank you!!!!! Our son’s previous experiences with his other dentist never went so well. They actually got to get X-rays done where before it was traumatic to get it done as he has bad gag reflexes. I so wish we came sooner here everyone is wonderful there.

-Ligers D.

February 18, 2018 "Dr. Patty is truly the most kind, caring, understanding, and most gentle and childrens' dentist in Portland. She has a smile that children (and adults) recognize as genuine. She, and all of the staff are truly exceptional, and unbelievably patient. Both of our children have experienced anxiety with going to the dentist initially, and we feel so fortunate to have discovered this wonderful office. Dr. Patty and her staff are so extremely patient, and they are more than delighted to help your child acclimate to going to the dentist by offering "happy visits." They want nothing more than to help your child have a positive experience in their office. The office itself is beautiful, with a play area, theatre area, and impeccably clean, light-filled, child-oriented rooms. Here, children can watch movies or videos overhead while having cleanings, and dental procedures done. It is just a wonderful office overall, and I cannot recommend it enough for anyone who has children. We live on the East side, and are more than happy to head over the Burnside Bridge to this wonderful office that our children love.

January 22, 2018I'm am so happy I found this place! It's honestly the best dentist I have ever been too and I feel lucky that my children get to be seen by such an amazing dentist. Dr. Patty is who sees two of my youngest children (4.5 and almost 2) and she is so great. I feel very comfortable and reassured every time I bring my children into see her. My daughter really likes her as well. The general atmosphere is Great and everybody works so well with children there. My kids love coming to their appointments and it has never been a scary or traumatic experience here. Even with two fillings done in a single visit. It was a breeze! And let me tell you, it was such a huge relief for me. They also have a really great prizes that the kids get to pick out after their visit. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for the best children's dentist around.

-Cassie F.

January 18, 2018We have two children that have seen Dr. Patty for a few years now. Our son is very shy and young and this last visit he was finally able to have all of his teeth clean. I appreciate the manner everything is carefully explained to me and to my children. The office space is also inviting for parents and children with playspace, videos, toys, and coffee! Thank you for caring for our children.

-Kristin B.

December 27, 2017Dr. Patty and her team are professional, kind, and friendly. They help explain each step and assure that the child and parent know what is happening along the way. They are high tech and offer kids the chance to watch movies to keep distracted from the procedures and reward them with a large area of toys/prizes and balloons. We are VERY happy with Portland Children's Dentistry!

-Annabelle H.

-Cheryl V.

November 28, 2017My son. 2 years old had his first appt. here today. They are amazing. I loved it here. Dr. Patty took her time with him and was so gentle and patient with him. I read so many reviews and searched around a lot before choosing PCD. I am so glad, I made the choice of going with them they are amazing. Thank You all so, much. The best part is that they do "happy visit's" Its a free appt. that they schedule for your little one to just, come to the office and play, and visit to start making them comfortable with the office/doctor. I love the idea of this. If you are debating on where to go, go here! I am driving 40 minutes just to get here, there is many ped. offices closer to me, but it id worth the drive.

September 20, 2017I can't say enough nice things about PCD. They are SO sweet to my kids, parents of young children themselves so very in tune, very professional and so easy to be around. The Facility is sparkling clean, new, high tech and comfortable in a very convenient spot for being downtown (lots of parking). They make sure your kids are comfortable with what they are doing, if they aren't they won't push it. These guys know what they're doing and it shows. (Oh, and the Netflix on the ceiling is pretty much the coolest idea ever.)

Bring your kids there!! You won't regret it.

-B.J.

September 6, 2017This is the best dentistry for children I we've ever been to. My daughter had a very bad experience with previous dentistry treatments and developed anxiety towards dental visits. It was a huge problem! After coming to this clinic, she told me she wanted to become a dentist! What?! Both doctors have such a unique approach, which makes children want to come and they can't wait until the next appointment. The clinic has so many fun things that kids don't even relialize they had a filling or a treatment done. We have 5 children and I know what I'm talking about. I strongly recommend this clinic!

August 11, 2017Dr Patty and her staff are amazing. My kids are actually excited to go to the dentist. They are all extremely wonderful, and I don't get that "dentist guilt" that I usually experience at dental offices (I have pretty serious dental anxiety). So glad we discovered PCD!!

-Angie D.

August 1, 2017We switched to Portland Children's Dentistry 3 years ago due to a relocation and a received mail coupon. I didn't have high expectations, because our son has had mediocre dentists his whole life. Dr. Patty and the staff changed everything. Dr. Patty truly cares for our son's teeth as if he were her own son. She brings up concerns and workarounds that NO ONE has ever done. It is clear with every interaction that Dr. Patty's goal is the best dental health for our son. She provides economical solutions every time. To be honest, I wish that she could be my dentist. I recommend her to everyone who is looking for a new children's dentist to go see Dr. Patty.

-James R.

June 26, 2017Best pediatric childrens clinic my daughter loves it here. I also feel confident she is not only getting great care but having a fun time.

June 2, 2017The office has state of the art equipment for Children dental care. It is very clean and up to the standard I have known in the state of California.The staff is professional, friendly and very helpful.The dentist is very nice and very patient with children. He is also highly knowledgeable. They take a picture at the end of the treatment with Mickey and Mini and offer the child a toy of his choice. My son Aiden had a great time having his teeth checked and thoroughly cleaned and of course taking a picture and getting a toy:).

I highly recommend this office for children dental care.

-Tila T.

May 15, 2017Dr. Patty is absolutely wonderful! She is so kind, sweet and caring, my daughter just loved her! She's very patient and so good at what she does! Very thankful to have a dentist I can trust with my baby.Also her assistant Janelle was such a natural and you can tell she loves what she does! :)

-Jenny Lyn L.

May 2017Dr. David and his staff are simply the best of the best. We feel warmly welcomed always, and treatment is top-of-the-industry...

-Gaia Andersen

May 2017I can tell you that David is the sweetest, most caring dentist that you will ever meet. I can say this with unbiased authority because he is my grandson. Ever since he was a child he has exhibited such compassion for those around him. Now I am filled with pride as I watch him as a husband to my beautiful granddaughter-in-law and father of two wonderful and wild boys. I can assure all the families in Portland that their children are in good hands at David's office! And if he tells you to stay away from sweets ask him about grandma's chocolate chip cookies.

April 4, 2017My boys and I love Portland Children's Dentistry!! Their team does an amazing job of taking care of the littles and making sure that they have fun, safe, and positive visit. The office is also super kid-friendly, with fun educational toys, a movie room, and prizes to earn at the end of each visit! I would highly recommend Portland Children's Dentistry to anyone looking for a dentist for their children.

-Tori Lee Waddell

December 29, 2016My boys love Dr. David! He is everything you could want in a pediatric dentist. The entire staff is fantastic!

-Jim W.

December 22, 2016Dr. David creates a safe environment that allowed my 4 year old daughter Rosie to relax and accept his dental work. Rosie simply needed a cleaning, however she is very shy and can act up. Dr. David help calmly explained to her what was going on, how the cleaning would help her and made her feel understood.

Rosie responds well to adults who listen, converse, and equalize the relationship. I would recommend Dr. David and his staff to anybody in the PDX area.

-Victor G.

December 12, 2016I cant say more wonderful things about Dr. David and his team. My 2 year old had to go under general anesthesia and David and his team comforted my fears answered all my questions through text, email and direct phone calls from the dentist. they are very good at what they do and very very kind. Amazing bed side manner. This will be our forever dentist!

-Tiffany C.

December 7, 2016Incredible dentistry! Dr. David gave my wife and I some super helpful advice for how to care for our 18 month old. He's great with kids and I highly recommend his practice!

-Alex K.

November 20, 2016A brilliant dentist & listens to a mothers concerns!

-Geezle H-.

October 26, 2016Dr. Raphael is great with kids. Very friendly staff, my kids love going to the dentist. If you're looking for Childrens dentist, give Portland Childrens dentistry a try

-D.G.

October 25, 2016Loved the care that they gave to our son. So kind and loving. Explained things on how everything was going to go and made us feel comfortable! We love Portland Children's Dentistry!

-Liana P.

August 10, 2016I never imagined being able to find such an amazing dentist for our 5yr old- who, unfortunately has a ton of work to be done- but we did!Dr.David has an unbelievable amount of patience and does such a great job of making the child feel as comfortable as possible.

Side Note: all of the hygienist and receptionist are amazing as well- So sweet and welcoming!

Thank You So Much Dr.David!

-Annica W.

August , 2016I highly recommend Dr. David! He is FANTASTIC with kids, very patient, and really cares for your child's oral health and overall dental experience. I would drive out of the way for him to be my child's dentist he is that GREAT! Office has a great vibe and staff is very friendly as well. Your missing out if you do not choose to bring your child to Dr. David.

-Tiffany Y.

August 5, 2016Our 18 month old son unfortunately has a bad case of tooth decay. This caused one of his teeth to chip and a lot of worry between my wife and I. We were able to setup a same day, new patient appointment with Dr. Patty and couldn't have been more pleased with our decision. Not only did they make room for us on their schedule with only a few hours notice, they had a fantastic office that made you forget you were even at a dentist appointment.While the news about how bad the decay wasn't what we wanted to hear, Dr. Patty had a wonderful bedside manner and I would recommend anyone with children to this dental office.

-James W.

August 5, 2016I could not be more pleased with my visit! I am a very picky and particular mother when it comes to the care of my son and Dr. Patty and her staff made us feel so comfortable and safe. I went in for a second opinion and received the same treatment plans as I got from another pediatric dentist but Dr. Patty made me feel like what I was doing was ok and she assured me that the choice I made was only mine to make. I have never felt better with any dentist being adult or pediatric. I will continue to bring my son here for the remainder of his childhood! Thank you staff and Dr. Patty! You all do such a wonderful job! Keep it up!

-Crystle W.

July 28, 2016I wish Dr. David took adults!! If this place had been around when I was a kid I never would have gotten cavities.

-Benjamin O.

July 25, 2016I love to see all these great reviews about a Dentist and an office that truly deserves the credit they've received! Dr. David is an amazing Dentist! The passion he has is shown through not only the work that is completed inside the mouth but also by the way he communicates with the patient at a child level, and a parent, to explain the importance of dental health, diagnosis of patients teeth, and treatment plan if necessary. I recommend Dr. David overall because he makes the experience for each of his patients a fun and non-stressful one!

-Krystal V.

July 21, 2016Went here because of the good reviews and the proximity to our house and we were very much satisfied with everything. we arrived even before their opening hours but we were already attended to. the staff is accommodating, the clinic is very clean, has lots of very appropriate distraction/toys especially for very young active kids. Dr David explained every step of the dental exam, his observations, suggestions for my child with chipped tooth. i loved how honest he can be and at the same time still discuss other options that i might want to consider. will definitely not hesitate entrusting my kid's dental health to them.

-Sheryl D.

June 4, 2016You know that feeling you get when you hope that what you're reading in everyone's reviews is true? That you hope your child's experience is going to be a great one? This office far exceeds your expectations. From the moment you call to schedule the appointment to the moment you walk out holding your child's "No Cavity Club" picture it was flawless. I have seen both doctors (Dr. Patty and Dr. David) and would without any hesitation recommend either of them. The staff is awesome, making you feel welcome as soon as you enter their beautiful office. Parking is easy (and free!) I can't say enough about the approach and individual care that is given to each child. Also, the staff and doctors really listen to your questions and concerns and address them as if they where treating their own child. WHERE ELSE WILL YOU RECEIVE GREAT CARE LIKE THIS? Believe the hype. This place is genuinely amazing!

-Melissa S.

April 26, 2016We want to see Dr David initially for a second opinion on dental work our son needed and he was great! Kind and patient answered all our questions and concerns. We decided to go through him for the work after our regular dentist turned out to have a long wait for hospital appointments and his staff was awesome in working with me to get out insurance sorted. Both my kids have since seen Dr David and they always leave the dentist happy.

-Theresa Sayavong

April 23, 2016I think this dentist office and their staff is absolutely the most amazing establishment for parents and kids. The office is immaculate and so creative. So warm and friendly. The play area is always super clean, and allows for educational and developmental opportunities. They are wonderful at working with children and making the dentist fun. Since I can remember as a child - the dentist was a scary and sometimes traumatic visit. Portland children's dentistry turns that concept on its head- my daughter looks forward to going to the dentist and seeing Dr. Patty. Each exam room has a theme with decor hanging from the ceiling. Clouds, airplanes, hot air balloons, etc. So much fun. So imaginative. Flat screens on the ceiling with great kid appropriate movies playing. Warm friendly music playing. The bathroom is also sparkling clean and offers a changing table fully stocked with diapers and wipes and has cute quotes on the walls from great characters like the big bad wolf, etcetera. Everything about this dentist office is super. I wish I could be a patient there!! I would recommend this to everyone who has children.

-Jessica Britt

April 2016Hygienists deal with children wonderfully. My son has seen both doctors and they're really great

-Vanessa Peterson

March 2016Our experience at Portland Children's Dentistry was fantastic. The entire staff is friendly and welcoming. They make my two year old feel comfortable to the point where she is excited to go to the dentist. Janelle was so fast with the teeth cleaning and has a perfect personality to work with young children. Dr. Patty is both warm and kind as well as knowledgeable and helpful when I had questions about my daughter's dental care. I cannot recommend this clinic highly enough!

-Tanner Marshall

March 2016My experience at Portland Children's Dentistry couldn't have gone any better! The office is very kid friendly and welcoming. The dental assistant Janelle did such an amazing job with my niece! And Dr Patty was very nice and took her time to make my niece feel comfortable. I definitely recommend this office!

-Michael Ancheta

March 28, 2016I brought my son here for his first dental appointment and Cristina was amazing even tho my son might not have been the best behaved. Thank you for making his first visit a fun one!

-Brandy Guymon

January 26, 2016I came in for a cleaning and were told my son had a small cavity that needed to be fixed, The girl Angela at the front desk was so sweet and helpful! Got us checked in so fast, there was no waiting time! My son got comfortable in his chair And met with Dr. David, his almost fluent Russian was very comforting for my son! they got the cartoon and laughing gas going and my son didn't even notice the needles or drilling! Within 10-15 min they were all done! My kids are very excited every time they come here! Great professional Doctors and staff. The atmosphere is beyond kid friendly and bathrooms are clean! I'd give this place 10 stars if I could!!

-Nessa V.

January 20, 2016Thank you Dr Patty and Cristina for such a great first visit for my daughter Vera! Going to the dentist can be very overwhelming and frightening yet you both worked very hard to make her feel comfortable and relaxed. As a mama, it means the world that I can trust you to make my daughter feel comfortable and happy! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Looking forward to our "happy visit" in a few weeks!

-Kristi A.

January 14, 2016I don't usually write reviews, even though I read them. But I just came from my 3-year old's emergency appointment at Portland Children's Dentistry and I felt compelled to share how pleased I was (again) with their services. My 3 year old and 6 year old have been going to PCD for the last year or so, and every time we go the kids truly enjoy their visit. Both the doctors and the rest of the staff have been great, and the facility itself is beautiful. Honestly, if I could I would drink their good coffee and let my kids play in the toy area all morning. I highly recommend Portland Children's Dentistry, and wish them all future success.

-Ashley M.

December 3, 2015My daughter dos great on her first visit! The office it's impeccable and the staff very professional and friendly! Dr. Patty was excellent and very patient with my baby girl! Excellent experience!

-Pamela Heier

October 30, 2015This was my daughter's first visit to the dentist. She is 3 and a bit shy. The hygienist was great, took the time to show my daughter all of the tools she would use, put on a show to distract her, and really made sure she was comfortable with everything she was going to do prior to doing it. She asked if it was OK to "Tickle" each of my daughter's teeth with the special brush, and really helped my daughter get comfortable prior to proceeding. The Dr. was great. We saw Dr. Patty, and it was a great experience. My daughter left with no cavities and was talking all the rest of the day about how great the visit was. I would recommend these folks in a heartbeat to other parents. My daughter is already asking when we get to go back.

-Anonymous

October 21, 2015Dr. David is great. Very patient, knowledgeable and caring. My son and I both have serious dental anxiety and he works well with it.

-Malinda Proud

October 13, 2015My daughter saw Dr. David and his Dental Assistant Janelle for her very first dental exam and it was the such a great experience! They really made my daughter feel comfortable and at ease. The office is clean, kid friendly and cool flat screens hanging from the ceilings for distraction. Our visit could not have been better!

-Anonymous

October 2015We had a great first visit with our two year old! I remember being a kid and going to "adult" offices that also do kids care, and I would feel on edge from the moment we walked in. We chose PCD because they set up an environment that caters to kids at every opportunity, and we wanted our son to feel safe and build positive dentist and healthcare experiences (not like the sterile Kaiser rooms where he's stripped down to be weighed on a horizontal scale before getting shots - whose idea was that?!). Once we could pull him away from the train table and past the toy wall (after visit treats), he let Dr. Raphael examine him and model tooth brushing without any fussing. I also learned we were using too much toothpaste (size of a grain of rice, not a pea) and that raisins are no good - I thought they were a healthy treat, whoops. So glad to find a place that is kid-centric and informative without making you feel judged. We'll be back, but hopefully not too often thanks to some sound advice!

-Byron B.

September 12, 2015My first experience as a child at the dental office was a nightmare. So I was a little worried how my adorable and loving children would react to their first dental appt. Let me tell, Dr Patty with her amazing smile washed all my fears away. My children were treated like royalty. Lollipops cartoons huge toy wall and in the end after hearing we were apart of the no cavity tree family, my kids turned to Dr Patty with love tears in their eyes and gave her a huge hug. ...Oh ya we are definitely coming back for our next cleaning. Thanks Patty

-Shereen L.

September 2, 2015Dr. David is awesome! Highly recommend to anyone with young children, he really takes his time and explains what's going to the child and the parent! My son loves him.

-Sara C.

August 28, 2015When I took my kids there, the kids were very excited when they saw the toy wall. Dr. Patty and her sparkling personality made my children feel right at home. From the minute you open the door, you are greeted with a warm welcome and you leave feeling like your kids are going to be well taken care of and not be afraid to come back.

-Melissa C.

August 9, 2015Great experience!! I took my son to Portland Children's Dentistry for his first check up. The office was clean, comfortable, and super kid friendly. My son was nervous at first but was put at ease by the hygienist and was won over immediately when he saw the prize wall. Dr. David is really nice, answered all my questions and gave good advice for how to keep my son's teeth clean and cavity free. I asked if they would be willing to see adults because I'd love it if my dentist's office was this cool.... unfortunately not! I've recommended them to my friends and we'll be going back again!!

-Salina F.

June 7, 2015My wife and I went to the open house and met Dr David, who is very knowledgeable and dedicated to his craft. The staff was very friendly, and helped create a very comfortable space. The office is also first-class. I would highly recommend Portland Children's Dentistry to anyone looking for a pediatric dentist.

-Jonas M.

June 5, 2015I only wish every pediatric dentistry office was as incredible as this one. Every single person I interacted with from the front desk to the dentist was cheery and capable. The office itself is stocked with toys and books, plus, they genuinely instill in children a love of taking care of one's teeth. There is no reason to go anywhere else.

-Michael J.

June 3, 2015 Great experience! My son needed to be seen immediately by a dentist and Dr. David was better than I could have ever hoped for. I am so glad to have discovered this practice.

-Anonymous

June 2, 2015 No cavity wall! They take your kid's picture then print up a copy. Going right on the fridge and the grandparents love it.

-Natalie W.

June 1, 2015My daughter had her first dental exam here and I am so glad we did! The entire staff was friendly and they were more than willing to work with my daughter's sensitivities. This place took away a lot of anxiety for me! We had a great experience :)

-Chi E.

June 1, 2015My son fell down so we went for the first time to see Dr. David in an emergency. The atmosphere of the office is great for kids and parents and Dr. David was excellent with my son. He was very nervous being in a new office and having just hurt his mouth but Dr. David helped relieve any worries for myself and my son. Will being coming back for sure.

-Catalina S.

May 28, 2015Today I brought my so into your office and it was absolutely the best experience we have had in any office! From the front desk staff to the assistants and doctor in the back we were treated with such kindness. Thank you to each one of you. My son can't wait to come back next week for his next appointment.

-Jamie Y.

May 20, 2015I brought my son in today for a check up and he had a blast Dr. David and his staff are beyond amazing and explained everything to me and my son thoroughly. My son especially loved watching TV while he was getting his cleaning done and he loved the prize at the end. we can't wait to be back in six months.

-Anonymous

April 3, 2015My son Dusty had to have two teeth extracted today and they were flawless in doing so. The atmosphere alone is unlike one I have experienced before, it was quiet and calm, soothing music and very child friendly office. Dr. David and Marianne have surpassed what I had been expecting from a dentist visit. They truly care and respect your perspective and concerns for your child. I would very much so recommend this facility. Please give them a try especially if your child needs a new love for the dentist. Thanks Again you guys, Dusty is doing great!

-Heidi M.

April 2, 2015Dr. David and the staff did a great job! The office is beautiful, Melissa was very helpful explaining my insurance benefits, and Marianne made it so fun for my 3 year old! I have recommended this office to all my friends!!

-Jordan R.

March 3, 2015BEST DENTAL EXPERIENCE EVER! Honestly, we have taken our son to a few different dentists and Dr. Patty and the staff of Portland Children's Dentistry put them all to shame. To be honest, my son only had one bad dental experience and he's had some good dentists as well. However, none treated him and me like Dr. Patty and the PCD staff. We have done a dental exam, cleaning, X-rays, and filling. NO dentist before Dr. Patty and Marianne (spelling?) could get good X-rays of our son (now 8 years old). They did somehow. They helped get past his touchy gag reflex and they made him feel so comfortable through the filling and sealants. They were not pushy at all with the treatment and Melissa, the office manager, was so kind and helpful. They didn't even charge us for an X-Ray angle they took which later we found out our previous dentist had done 6 months before. Dr. Patty took the time to explain everything carefully, including her concerns for the future and things to watch out for. My only regret with PCD is that we didn't switch to them sooner! Oh, this might sound like a shill review or an advertisement, but I guess I am just that satisfied. The office looks wonderful and has plenty of toys and videos (even a video headset for procedures). They have free Wifi for parents too. Parking underneath is a breeze.

-Christian R.

November 30, 2014I have taken my 7 y/o son to see Dr Patty several times now. She is always attentive to his needs, ensuring that he feels as comfortable as possible during each visit. I have been very satisfied with the care and service Dr Patty provides, and I highly recommend her and the staff at Portland Children's Dentistry to any parent.

-Mario R.

November 16, 2014Dr. David is caring, thoughtful, and connected so easily with my two-year old. I would highly recommend him!

-Lindsey G.

October 28, 2014I took my 13 month old son here recently for his first dental appointment and every aspect from the reception area to the dentist chair was welcoming, kid friendly, easy and SUPER friendly. Dr. David was so informative and helpful about my son's current teeth, what to expect in the coming months and how to maintain a healthy regime moving forward. I would recommend Portland Children's Dentistry to anyone looking for a great and easy experience for their child. As an added bonus, they have a toy bin that kids get to choose from at the end of their visit and they took the cutest picture that they gave to me so I can remember this special milestone! All around SUPER impressed and plan to make them my son's permanent dentist.

-Emilie C.

October 28, 2014My son is very comfortable with Dr. David. This place is great!

-Mark R.

October 23, 2014I took my one-year old son to see Dr. David for his first dentistry visit, and this is a beautiful office that is clean, comfortable and fun on the inside for both parents and kids. The front desk was friendly yet professional as they helped sort out our insurance. And Dr. David was fantastic in making my son feel at ease by allowing him to explore his surroundings such as the dentistry chair and some tools. We are huge fans of Portland Children's Dentistry and look forward to our next visit. We highly recommend it to everyone!!

-Allison K.

October 22, 2014I recently attended the opening of this amazing pediatrics office. The tall windows are facing the wonderful shopping center found on 23rd street. There is a lots of light and openness flowing throughout the office. Dr. Patricia is a very experienced dentist, who did her studies in Chile for about 6 years before continuing her studies in Oregon. She is a warm-kinded woman who makes each of her patients feel comfortable. Dr. Patty is dedicated to her practice and her patients. I would definitely recommend Portland Children's Dentistry to all parents and children.

-Dominique A.

October 20, 2014I recently took my 4 yr old for her first dental appointment. Dr. Patty and her team were outstanding in making her feel comfortable with her surroundings, and showed her everything before doing it. The team is very friendly and with the kids and they know exactly how to get things done. Dr. Patty was extremely good with her skills and approach, she kept my daughter engaged all the time she was shown all the instruments and saw how they were used on their hands first. Then they laid back and watched a movie while their teeth were cleaned. It was fabulous. My daughter had such a great experience she did not want to leave! As well as we never felt rushed during the appointment!!!

-Shelby C.

October 15, 2014I brought my 22 month old daughter here for her first dental check-up. I was over-the-top impressed with Dr Patty and her staff! My daughter actually enjoyed being there from start to finish and she still talks about the big bear in the waiting area. Dr Patty was great with my daughter and she was very knowledgable about pediatric dental health. She gave me great tips on how to ensure my daughter stays cavity free and she was so encouraging with the way she complimented us on my daughter's dental hygiene so far. We will be telling our friends with kids about this place for sure!

-Kate O.

September 23, 2014I want to start off saying this is the BEST place in so many ways I really can't think of one thing I would change that says a lot!

I have been to another place that's well known in Portland and they didn't do a good job in many ways, so that's why I went looking for a new place and I found it. My son is 8 and he has been here two times and saw both Dr. David and Dr. Patricia they are BOTH great!

My son went the other day to get a baby tooth pulled and it was so easy. He had a tv to watch and keep him busy and they explained everything and he didn't even cry. Also after the toy bin he got three toys and a balloon.

If you are looking for a clean place with great doctor and staff and someone your kid won't mind to go to, this is the place!!!!!

I just wanted to add the next day they even called to see how my son was feeling I have to say for them to remember and care says a lot about the place! I wish they took big people also!

-Nisa A.

September 18, 2014 We have seen Dr. Patty on several occasions and every time we have had a very pleasant experience. She does a great job helping my nervous son feel comfortable and I have never felt that I left with any unanswered questions. The entire staff is very friendly and professional. We will definitely continue to see Dr. Patty!

-Kara H.

September 17, 2014Dr. David and crew made my daughter and I feel very comfortable through the entire appointment. The office is clean and spaced out really well. Your kid will love this place, mine is already asking to go back!

-Benjamin T.

August 29, 2014I heard about this place from a friend who had a good experience, so I decided to try them out. I was looking for a pediatric dentist for my one year old for a first visit, and they have a convenient location. The office is super nice, tons of stuff for kids to play with, and a TV room if you want to watch it (but for people like me that don't watch TV it was nice not to have in my face). Front desk staff super friendly and professional, easy to make appointment and deal with insurance. Dr. David was amazing with my kid, really gentle and fun. Got the exam done with no tears, good to have a positive first experience with the dentist so he's not afraid in the future. Pretty sweet toy bin. The best part is I could go shopping at World Market after (it's literally right next door).

-Lesley W.

August 13, 2014Portland Children's Dentistry is the best pediatric dental office I have been to. Dr. David is amazing with my daughter, and made her feel comfortable. His care was astounding and he thoroughly explained everything, and left me with no questions. He made us feel comfortable and happy with every service performed.

-Alyssa H.

May 12, 2014My 7r yr old son had a wonderful experience with Dr. David. Dr. D was careful and caring, but also efficient and didn't waste time once he had my son in the chair. I was impressed that he was able to explain to me in "grown up language" what I needed to know, while at the same time establishing a rapport with my son and putting him at ease. We would definitely come back to Dr. David and his practice.

-Chris C.

August 13, 2013"My son is usually my most anxious child when it comes to Doctor/Dentist visits. Dr. Patty helped him feel comfortable and at ease. He didn't need any extraordinary measures taken for his recent extraction because the staff were all so great with him! His recovery was swift as well, and that makes for a happy son and a happy mama."

-Chris

July 31, 2013"We were running late and the office graciously kept our appt. a half an hour later. Dr. Patty took time to explain the novocaine and nitrous oxide to my child even through his 20-question intervals. Thank you!"

May 3, 2013"Maddie and Dr. Patty were AMAZING! They gently guided my anxious daughter through a complete exam and cleaning with reassurance and confidence. We couldn't be happier, and my daughter can't wait to go back!"

-Arielle L.

May 3, 2013"Yes, I HAVE strongly referred people to you! Awesome awesome… LOVE Dr. Patty, and Bailie is fantastic with my daughter! My daughter had had a negative and fearful experience for her first two dentist appts. elsewhere, and she came to you last year very apprehensive about the dentist as a result. It took a few visits to earn her cooperation and trust, but all with no tears all the while, and yesterday – after about 6 months since last being seen, she was the perfectly cooperative patient… you guys have turned her around! Thank you. I wish I came to you in the first place when I began her dental care! Now I know… you are the best! My almost four-year old actually enjoys the dentist I think…. where were you when I was kid? ;) Keep it up!"

-Anonymous

February 4, 2013"Dr. Patty and Heather squeezed my daughter in on a Friday afternoon after I called for advice because she had fallen and chipped her tooth pretty badly. At 16 months we hadn't yet established care with a dentist and I had planned to just take her to our family dentist when it was time to start regular cleanings. We weren't expecting anything like this to happen and not many dentists are open on Friday but I really wanted to get her seen to make sure her tooth was ok. Dr. Patty's office didn't even ask if we were patients there, she just squeezed us in. I expected a quick look and a, "looks good, keep an eye on it and let us know if she acts like it's bothering her" and a rush out the door, but Heather and Dr. Patty took their time…"
